People are offended by just about everything so it’s really no surprise that people in Muncie, Indiana would be offended by a billboard that reads:

“Hate cops? The next time you need help call a crackhead.”

It gets the point across!

A billboard in Indiana has caused some controversy in the wake of the high-profile police killings and officer-involved shooting deaths of African-American men.

The electronic billboard in Muncie caught the eyes of plenty of people around the town Saturday and one person described it as “vulgar” and “discriminatory.” It read “Hate cops? The next time you need help call a crackhead.”

Megan Thomas told The Star Press on Sunday that she noticed the sign while walking with her niece. She said she was offended by the message, which she alleged was “vulgar, discriminatory to many different classes of people in our city.” She said it also seemed to have been up ahead of a police brutality protest.

“I was very ashamed that something so dividing was present in Muncie,” she added.
